Synergy Session: How Do We Teach and Learn Innovation?

Location: Room TBA, Memorial University

Innovation. The word and concept has become increasingly popular recently –but what is it, really? Where do innovators come from? What does the practice of innovation look like?

In this Synergy Session, Ryan will present his award-winning Master’s research, Innovation Education. In his work he explored exactly those questions above, unearthing a set of innovation skills and synthesizing an innovation curricula. Finally, he examined how this set of skills is intentionally taught (or not!) in Newfoundland and Labrador’s public education systems, from K-12 through to post-secondary.
